Why I'm Interested:

I work in a library, so this challenge is pretty much my DUTY. I also have a lot of Bucket List books I hope to get to this year, and they'll probably be coming from the library.

My Google Reader just blew up with all the challenges you're doing this coming year! I am not sure I'll do any...I think my goal this year is to simply read at least two books a month. That's simple enough for me! Merry Christmas!

@Small - Give the digital library a try. I was shocked to see how many newly released books I scored this year. My library allows me to do audio books and also read books on my kindle. I like that because on my kindle I use the text-to-speech function to listen while commuting to work. I have a very long drive. The library I'm associated with works in conjunction with Library2go.com. I also use ebook fling on my kindle to get books loaned to me too.

I definitely will, once I get an e-reader. Until then I have more than enough e-books through NetGalley. I try to keep them to a minimum because reading on my computer is not ideal. When I do get an e-reader (someday!) I'm going straight to you for all the e-book sources :)
